We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.

Rush said today: "Just two Muslims with guns dominated the world news, and scared the media out of their minds, for almost a week. That, my friends, is called power."

It is amazing how fearful the American MSM is of, of Muslims. The New York Times males have their panties messed up. Man up, pussies. I advise 12 ga. shotgun, not rifle or handgun. When lunatics in the vicinity, steady aim is difficult except for the pros.

He went on to explain that those two are not the real news, that the real news is the millions of Muslims all around the world who remain silent, support, or applaud their war on Western civilization. Not to mention their apologists and the scaredy-cats in the West.

Has any Muslim organization in the world condemned these sorts of evil ones yet? Not one.

Unlike some hysterics, I have no big fear of the batshit lunatics. Unlike the French, we regular Americans are well-armed. Unlike past free-world threats, these are snakes, not formidable armies. Slippery, though, because Islam advises them to lie to nonbelievers so, if in the wrong place at the wrong time, these snakes can bite. They need killing, same as a rattlesnake in the barn.

This idiotic war has been going on for a long time, since around 600 AD. We are on the side of the crusaders, defending the foundations of Judeo-Christian civ. It ain't perfect, but it's OK. The French may need a Charles Martel, but most of the West just needs a St. Patrick to eliminate the snakes. Send them packing back to whence they came along with their loony cult and their hopeless, ignorant, pedophile, goat-f-ing, wife-beating, bloody, desert culture where their fun was in killing eachother and nobody really cared what they did until WW1.

My only problem with all of this is that I have some Muslim friends and colleagues who I respect - and vice-versa - and whose company I enjoy a great deal. They have zero interest in killing me for my Christian faith and I believe it because we've talked over (many) beers in NYC pubs. In fact, in my heart I would rather bring them to Christ than they are interested in bringing me to their Mohammed prophet.

For me, live and let live - but if you want to harm me, I will kill you and I have the means and the heart to do so with no remorse.

Shotguns ad libitum is nice in concept, but unwieldy in practice of carrying them about during your daily business. A handgun can be concealed until needed and thus be at the ready. What we should do is avoid "gun-free" zones and businesses as much as possible. That may mean finding more suitable schooling for your child.

As for use of the hand gun, you are not a cop. You have no authority order people about. Your possession should come as a complete surprise to an attacker, preferably his awareness will be prompted by the searing pain of being shot. You will be judged on, whether you started the altercation by interfering the lawful acts of the victim, if not, then whether your belief the individual was an imminent threat of death or serious bodily injury was reasonable.

Shooting someone from a distance by a private citizen is a difficult justification of imminent threat and would mostly be to disrupt the killer from killing others, to abet the escape of others or give time for police arrival. Such a situation would be extremely rare and even if you miss you would still have accomplished a justifiable use if it stops the assailant's attack even if only for a time.

As the threat cannot be mitigated by direct action based on being Muslim, we must go armed so as to be ready to act when the Islamic cult members reveal themselves by their murderous actions.

To go unarmed is to force the prudent to associate the threat with all Muslims. That is not a condition we should encourage in this country.

Judge a person by their actions, not their religion, race, etc. But be prepared, by going armed, if a person's actions become an imminent threat that must be stopped immediately (see imminent) to avoid death or serious bodily injury.

Not all muslims are "cult killers", but a signification percentage--somewhere north of 10 percent (but less than 1/3) approve of their behavior. Another significant percentage doesn't really care one way or the other.

Given that there's 1.6 billion of them, their founding documents tell them to lie and cheat where non-muslims are concerned and that it is not only ok, but RIGHT AND PROPER to kill infidels like my wife and our daughters.

Yeah, it's about time to stop playing and make it VERY VERY clear to the Islamic World that Homey Don't Play That.

Oh, and while you were looking at France, 2000 people in Nigeria were killed by Boko Harum.

I swear to f*king god, a light Battalion of Marines and loose RoE and that problem is GONE.

Indeed, the war has gone on for over 1300 years, but back in the day the technology was about equal. Each side pretty much equipped with the same weapons. The battles turned on logistics, numbers, and leadership.

Nowadays we have an overwhelming technical advantage. We could win this war and it could be virtually bloodless for our side, but we lack the will and the leadership to take the war seriously.

One wonders what would be the case if the technological tables were turned. If Islam had our military/tech capabilities, and we only had what they have now, do you think they would be as charitable to us as we have been to them?

Our "Leaders" enthusiastically support Muslim immigration, as they do unlimited Mexican immigration, because such enables their One World Government Utopia. They have to destroy nationalism to succeed, and they know full well that neither the ragheads nor the Mexicans have any interest in American nationalism whatsoever.

As to condemnations, first out of the box was Dr. Zhudi Jasser (USN Ret.) who runs the American Islamic Forum for Democracy (AIFD). Look him up. He needs a megaphone. He also appears on Fox News. Him and a handful of others like him (now including Sisi of Egypt) give me some hope.

As to whether to be concerned about the Muslims, I think you are far too complacent. The big fear has to be an al Qaeda, ISIS, or Iran getting access to nuclear weapons or at least materials sufficient to create a dirty bomb. The technological gap is closing quick.

As to the importance of the technological gap, let's give Churchill the final quote: "[W]ere it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it (Islam) has vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.”

And what else are they gonna do? Announce gleefully with song and dance? Good lip service, public relations mouthpieces, and press coverage are the norm - condone the actions, but smile inwards for the onward march of the faith. You can say how horrible this is, but taqiyya (lying for the faith to unbelievers) is condoned and practiced.

"I advise 12 ga. shotgun, not rifle or handgun. When lunatics in the vicinity, steady aim is difficult except for the pros."

Yeah, but now you increase the odds of hitting innocent people, too.

"Unlike the French, we regular Americans are well-armed."

The odds are excellent that if that office had been in Chicago, New York or L.A. there would have been a sign posted on the entrance banning possession of firearms by anyone entering the building - which would be obeyed by the law-abiding citizens and, of course, ignored by anyone actually bent on homicide. If I published a magazine like this in the U.S. I'd make damn sure it was based in Houston or Dallas.

"It is amazing how fearful the American MSM is of, of Muslims. The New York Times males have their panties messed up."

That's because they want to be children and have the government and police act as their parents and protect them from harm. They do not want to be adults who are responsible for their own safety. And they want to infantilize the rest of us as well, by force, in the mistaken idea that this will ensure that they themselves can remain infants.

Do not make the mistake of believing that if this magazine had not published offensive cartoons that these men, and radical Islam would be at peace. They were looking for Kafir to kill for real or imagined offenses. These cartoonists were like the canary in the mine and their deaths are a warning of danger. When Radical muslims run out of cartoonists to kill they will kill jews, then women who are showing their ankles then men who fail to bow to them. Do not believe those who tell you that in some way that somehow these cartoonists "deserved" what they got.

Brother, your playing my song. I'm an old dog, but when I was young I've been punched in the face, had a beer bottle broken over my head in a roadhouse, saw an easy going guy from the Bronx take a 30 cal RPD round in the throat outside the wire at Cu Chi about 6 inches from me....
Now I love a good woman who gave me beautiful children and a couple grandchildren. We like to laugh and sing and eat and talk and all the things civilized free men and women do.
I see these ghouls, these monsters amongst us doing the devil's business and I want to see them dead before they hurt someone I love or part of someone else's family table. I don't think there's any avoiding that.

Shotguns take more aim than most think, require just as much practice and start to lose effect at relatively short ranges (this can be good and bad).

This is not to disparage shotguns. I intend to get at least one this year, and study it's use.

A modern combat handgun equipped with a Red Dot Site, can in the hands of moderately skilled operator, reach out 75 or 100 yards *with ease*. Heck, I've gotten decent hits with a Glock 19 at 55 yards with stock sights, and a Beretta at 75 yards (the former from standing, one shot out of the holster, the latter prone).

If you live in a Free State, a folding stocked AK (krinkov) or a Sig556 with a short barrel will fit in a book bag and give you 150 to 200 yard reach, especially with a 2 or 4x scope.

I know what I want for christmas next year :).

That said, these sorts of things happen FAST and you're either at close ranges or you're not going to be in the fight. A mid sized Glock or XD, or a sub-compact if you must--carried some place you can get to FAST will save lives and LOTS of money. Terrorists who die quickly at the first crime scene are a lot less scary than terriorsts who run around a city for a day, then die at the 4th or 5th crime scene.

France has no more right to exist than Israel. If France does not fight back, it will be destroyed.

To support France, I believe we should all treat France as France treats Israel.

Does France give money (even indirectly through the EU or UN) to the Palestinians or the Israelis?

Does France support in its media and its government Israel and the religion of the majority of its inhabitants or the Palestinians and the religion of the majority of its inhabitants?

In the UN does France vote to condemn Israel for human rights violations or does it vote to condemn every Moslem state?

I suspect I know the answers to these questions.

Remember the Leftist slogan of the 1960s: “Bring the War home?”

After decades of hateful anti-Americanism from France, I still hope France survives and prospers, but not one American dollar or one American life should be lost defending a state and people who hate America and will not defend themselves.

"After decades of hateful anti-Americanism from France, I still hope France survives and prospers, but not one American dollar or one American life should be lost defending a state and people who hate America and will not defend themselves."

One could very well say the same thing about New York City. Or Chicago. Or DC. Or Philadelphia. Or Los Angeles. Or San Francisco. Or Seattle. Or...

To the author,
You are very badly mistaken....you do NOT have any Moslem friends. It is quite literally against their religion to have "unbelievers" as friends. Read the Quran. You can not have any opinion on the matter, not a fair, educated one, without doing so.
In the '70s, England and the rest of Europe had a very nice time importing many "peaceful, moderate" Moslems. They were establishing nothing more than a beach head, as it were.
Look at the place now.
You are being used like a useful idiot.
Apologies for the harsh term.
